Fees

International students who have a GPA above 3.5/4.5 receive an
entrance scholarship IGSES. Their tuition is the same as that for
Canadian students. For such PhD students, the tuition fee is
approximately \$4,500 for the first two years and \$750 on
subsequent years. For international MSc students satisfying the above
GPA requirement, the tuition fee is approximately \$4,500 for the
first year and \$750 on subsequent years. The total tuition fee in
the program for such students is significantly lower than most
other major Canadian universities.
